Midway through Coach said, "I have a challenge for you....you need to beat that girl" as he points at her...."if you come in 2nd place behind her, the penalty is 20 burpees." Of course, "that girl" is someone I aspire to get to in all aspects of fitness. She finished about 2 minutes ahead of me. As I was on the rower, I said "sorry Coach, couldn't catch her" to which he responded "just gimme my burpees". "That girl" actually got down and did the 20 with me, which didn't make them suck any less but was nice.
